 'As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him'
(Colossians 2:6).

Every single person has the opportunity to accept Christ as their personal Saviour from sin. It is Christ who came down from heaven and die for us so we might have eternal life. In order for us walk worthy of Christ we must abide and rest in him, as we walk in spirit and truth.  We need to submit to the leading of the Holy Spirit in our lives willingly and purposefully, acknowledging that we are in need of Christ. All who trusted in Christ for their salvation should walk in His ways and follow his will and not ours. As believers we ought to receive Christ Jesus as Lord and are admonished to continue to live our lives in Him. What a difference it would make if all  would accept Christ in faith and abide in him! Jesus would sooner make his appearance, so we could spend eternity with him. Every believer who does accept Christ in faith must live and think by faith and our walk with God will certainly be pleasing to Him. We know that we ought to live by faith and not by sight, because our salvation is based on Christ alone and what He has done, not by our own works. Let us study and trust in the living Word of God, that we may not be taken in by deceptive arguments about the Saviour. But that we may walk worthy of Christ and be identified with God through our faith in Christ. Let us seek daily the blessed assurance of our salvation as we come to Christ by faith, trusting in the grace and mercy of God. Let us also seek steadfastness in Christ by our faith in him. As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him.

Have a wonderful day 🌹🌹

 'But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you' (Matthew 6:33). The Lord is our Provider and knows all that we are in need of before we even ask. We do not need to worry or fret ourselves about what we shall eat or drink. Our Father in heaven will take care of these things we need. We are told by Jesus, 'To seek first the kingdom of God.' What does that mean? It means we should lean on, and trust in the grace of Jesus Christ. We should repent of our sins and have a desire to turn away from it. We should seek to put God first in our praise to Him, in our worship of Him, to put our total trust in Him and to rely on Him  rather than ourselves or others. We need to seek Him first in our reassurance and acknowledging who He is and what He can do. We also need to seek God's righteousness by  loving our neighbors and feeding the poor and destitute, seek justice for the vulnerable. We should put God's plan and...

 'Trust ye in the Lord forever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength' (Isaiah 26:4). In a time where there is so much confusion and uncertainty, God is calling us to trust Him always. He is our everlasting strength - the Rock of all ages, Jesus Christ our Lord. He is our refuge and strength in every trial we face and our everlasting Rock in every raging storms of our lives. He is our peace in the midst of perplexity and our Fortress in times of trouble who will cause all things to work together for good. All our blessings; temporal or spiritual comes from him, which give us cause to trust Him forever. Christ our solid Rock in ages past and ages to come, is our Righteousness and and in Him we find shelter in the time of storm. We can trust Him at all times and in everything. To give us victory over sin and temptation; to bear us up under affliction and to help us withstand the spiritual attacks that may come our way. It is a good thing to put our confidence in the Lor...

'Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead , yet shall he live;' (John 11:25). The story of Lazarus is a well known one in the Bible. He and his sisters Martha and Mary were friends of Jesus, who loved them. Lazarus became sick and died, and after four days Jesus raised him from the dead. This was more for benefits of those around including His disciples, so that they may truly believe that God had sent him.  He was speaking  with Martha who was more focused on the telling Jesus the problem, than demanding a specific solution. We too can be so focus on the problems we faced, that we forget that God is  much bigger that the problem and is our solution to them. When Jesus told her Lazarus would rise again, she understood it to mean he would live again someday. But Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life: he that believes in me, though he was dead, yet shall he live." Christ at this time, was able...
